Medindi's Recommended Restaurants

I have had the pleasure of dining at two restaurants in the last two weeks which I think our guests would enjo!

The first restaurant is called Don Pedro's. Situated in roodebloem rd Woodstock, is this Victorian-60's feel, petite restaurant. Everything about this restaurant was amazing. The decor - hanging drape curtains, old wooden furniture and great pictures from the past. A big piano standing in the middle of the room and a bar for those popping in just for a drink. The food was to-die-for, tasy, delicious and well presented. The ladies working at Don Pedro's are so friendly and always happy to tell you The Story. Affordable evening out for two with a tasty meal and great entertainment. Be sure to try this place out, for more information or bookings go to www.donpedros.co.za

The second restaurant is called Jamaica Me Crazy! The complete Jamaica atmosphere, even the waitors are jamaican! This restaurant also in roodebloem st, Woodstock is a fun place to visit if you are looking for some cocktails or hanging out with friends around a log fire for the cold winter months coming. A very lively restaurant and bar with a big selection of yummy food. The staff is friendly and very helpfull. Look out for their Happy Hours between 5 and 7pm and daily specials! If you want more information or want to book a table go to www.jamaicamecrazy.co.za

Rainy Days at Medindi

A rainy day in Cape Town means a warm fire burning at Medindi Manor Guest House. Medindi has 4 rooms with build in fire places which we light each night for the guests staying here. It creates that extra special touch to what we enjoy giving to our guests. 
Why wait, book now for those rainy days coming to Cape Town and enjoy your build in fire place.

La Mer Spa Day at Medindi Manor!

The La Mer Spa day at Medindi Manor was a success! 

The ladies from La Mer were pampering their guests in our rooms, with background music and a fire to help create a peaceful mood. Each guest was welcomed with a beautiful smile and showed up to the rooms where the La Mer ladies did a facial and a upper body massage for about 45min. After pampering, each guest received a small gift bag and had a over view of all the products available (to purchase as well) with a coffee & tea in Medindi's dinning room to finish the pampering off.

If you you would like more information on either product or pamepering, please call them on 021 683 5657.

We have enjoyed being the host for La Mer's Spa day and hope to have them with us again soon. Thank you La Mer for choosing Medindi!
